1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundThe goal of this study was to investigate the clinical and pathological features and prognosis of idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN) with focal segmental lesions.

methodsIn our hospital, 305 patients with nephrotic syndrome confirmed as IMN by renal biopsy were divided into a non-focal segmental lesion group (FSGS- group) and a focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) group (FSGS+ group) and retrospectively analyzed. In all, 180 patients were followed for periods ranging from 6 months to 2 years. The general clinicopathological data of both groups were compared, and the effects of different treatment schemes on the prognosis of both groups were observed.

resultsThe FSGS+ group had a longer disease course, higher blood pressure levels, and higher serum creatinine and β

conclusionsMembranous nephropathy with FSGS is a risk factor, but not an independent risk factor, for IMN. Patients with membranous nephropathy with FSGS often present hypertension and tubule injury. The nonselective drug cyclophosphamide is preferred, and calcineurin inhibitors should be used with caution.
